C. o ' ° ° " " I pi Life offers no sweeter scene than that of a contented, carefree old age— financially independent and enjoying the fullness of life as only elderly peo- e can do. Likewise, nothing is more pathetic than an elderly person unable to work and dependent on others. Often times there is no one that cares much and the dependent person must take what is given or depend on public charity. START SAVING NOW! Perhaps you are young now and the problems of old age seem far, far away, but you will grow old—and so soon. Start saving today when you won’t miss it much, and you will be finan cially independent and carefree when you grow old. You will find every feature of a pro gressive bank at your service here.

We are in the midst of a definite trerd toward shorter working hours in every department of business and industry. The development of labor- saving machinery is having much to do with this but thi s is by no means the only reason for these changing conditions. In the days of our grandfathers there was only a limited amount of time available for recreation among the masses of the people. The hours of toil were lorg. Changed condit ions represent a decided improve ment because, as a general rule, people are making use df their spare time to good advantage. Greater time for athletics, outdoor life, trav el, reading, studies of the arts and sciences and philanthropic work are among the rightful benefits that come from the changing order. It should not be forgotten that there can be neither progress nor happiness without work. Our spare time should be made use of to make ourselves the more capable of doing the work we have mapped out for our lives. Thore is no real pleasure greater than that which comes from suc cessful accomplishment. No matter in what lire df activity we. may find cur ; ',elves, we should realize thalt perform ng our daily tasks to the best of our ability brings far great er contentment of mind than could possibly come from idleness. There is no true happiness in an idle life. Waste of time is a form of thriftlessness that is as destruc tive of rightful pleasure as waste of money or waste of health. Work alone brings happiness, be cause work is creative and upbuild ing. All the instincts of the human race which have been responsible for humanity’s progress have found their real fulfillment in work. Happiness through industrious employment is one of the fundament als that can be continually counted on. It is a splendid type of tiue, constructive thrift. S. C.
